Harold Arlen - Down With Love lyrics

rate me

Down with love the flowers and rice and shoes

Down with love the root of all midnight blues

Down with things that give you that well known pain

Take that moon wrap it in cellophane

Down with love, let's liquidate all its friends

Moon and June and roses and rainbow's ends

Down with songs that moan about night and day

Down with love yes take it away, away

Take it away, take it away

Give it back to the birds and bees and the Viennese

Down with eyes romantic and stupid

Down with sighs, down with cupid

Brother let's stuff that dove

Down with love

Down with love the flowers and rice and shoes

Down with love the root of all midnight blues

Down with things that give you that well known pain

Take that moon wrap it in cellophane

Down with love, let's liquidate all its friends

Moon and June and roses and rainbow's ends

Down with songs that moan about night and day

Down with love yes take it away, away

Take it away, take it away

Give it back to the birds and bees and the Viennese, please

Down with eyes romantic and stupid

Down with sighs, down with cupid

Brother let's stuff that dove

Down with love, down with love
